ExtremeSTP Cold Climate Sewage Treatment Plants

Limited Warranty

Secondary to any warranty that may be provided by Bio-Microbics® Incorporated (see the Bio-Microbics® Incorporated Owner's Manual), Lifewater Engineering Company (Lifewater) provides the following limited warranty.

Lifewater provides a limited warranty for its ExtremeSTP sewage treatment plants against defects in materials and workmanship for a period of 24 months for residential installations using the RTF0.25, RTF0.375, MCF0.5, MCCF0.75, or MCF0.9 treatment inserts and 12 months for all other systems from date of shipment, subject to the following terms and conditions.

ExtremeSTP sewage treatment plants are designed to operate at temperatures as cold as -60°F providing there is no interruption of electric power. If the electric power to the ExtremeSTP is off for any period of time during freezing conditions, it is the OWNER'S responsibility to take immediate appropriate action. Such action must include monitoring temperatures inside the system and taking whatever steps are necessary to prevent freezing of any part of the system. This may include providing power to the unit by means of an auxiliary generator or otherwise protecting the unit from freezing.

During the warranty period, if any part is defective or fails to perform as specified when operating at design conditions, and if the equipment has been installed and is being operated and maintained in accordance with the ExtremeSTP OWNER'S RESPONSIBILITIES as well as all other written instructions provided by Lifewater including the Bio-Microbics® Incorporated Owner's Manual, Lifewater will repair or replace at its discretion such defective parts free of charge. Defective parts must be returned to Lifewater postage paid by the OWNER. The cost of labor and all other expenses resulting from replacement of the defective parts and from installation of parts furnished under this warranty as well as regular maintenance items, such as filters or bulbs, shall be borne by the owner.

This warranty does not cover any components that have been damaged by flooding or any components that have been disassembled by unauthorized persons, improperly installed or damaged due to altered or improper wiring or surge protection. This warranty applies only to the treatment plant and does not include any house wiring, plumbing, drainage, or other related or

unrelated items. This warranty does not apply to the foundation or supports of the ExtremeSTP, its inlet or outlet piping, or electrical service. Lifewater reserves the right to revise, change or modify the construction and/or design of its ExtremeSTPs, or any component part or parts thereof, without incurring any obligation to make such changes or modifications in present equipment. Lifewater is not responsible for consequential or incidental damages of any nature resulting from such things as, but not limited to, defects in design, material, or workmanship; delays in delivery, replacements, or repairs; damage to any structure, component, or ground surface related to ground thawing or freezing.

THIS WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER EXPRESSED WARRANTIES. ANY WARRANTY IMPLIED BY LAW, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, IS IN EFFECT ONLY FOR THE WARRANTY PERIOD SPECIFIED ABOVE.
